Job Description

Sigma Defense is seeking a Software Engineer to join their development team in a hybrid work environment based in San Diego, CA. This entry-level position offers an opportunity to work on both desktop and web applications, with a focus on frontend development using modern technologies like Angular, Node.js, and TypeScript.

The role requires 1-3 years of experience and involves developing features, building modules, and maintaining web services under the guidance of senior engineers. The ideal candidate should have a strong foundation in object-oriented programming with Java or C#, and experience with web technologies including JavaScript/TypeScript, HTML5, and CSS.

This position offers a competitive salary range of $72,000-$75,000 annually, along with comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, and vision insurance, 401(k) with company matching, and educational assistance. The company provides a generous PTO package with 160 hours of paid time off and 12 floating holidays.

As a U.S. defense contractor, candidates must be U.S. citizens and able to obtain a Secret security clearance. While the work is primarily remote, some on-site reporting will be required in San Diego. The role offers an excellent opportunity to grow technical skills in a collaborative team environment while contributing to enterprise-level projects.

The position involves working in an Agile environment using Kanban workflows, participating in the full software development lifecycle, and staying current with emerging technologies. This is an ideal opportunity for an early-career software engineer looking to gain experience in a defense technology environment while working with modern web technologies.
